[Drifting Away (Dubstep) [WIP]]

Awesome

my only probs in there is that sometimes the wobble notes are not in melody with the other stuff

MA3HbO responds:

You are quite right.I just throwed some random notes for the wobble.Haven't really spend much time on it.

[Flaws]

Really reminds me of Hybrid

love all the sounds n stuff sounds so cool

InvisibleObserver responds:

Certainly focused more on texture and sound then composition.

[AD - Lightmass (DUB)]

Nice.. Do Finish

notes you chose for the synth are sick, they carry the dark mood perfectly, cant wait for the drop! When it finally does though make an especially energetic drum break. Good Mixing and stuff as always

AeraDynamic responds:

Will do mate, I have should get some ideas for more major assage breaks!

[Neurofunk SH!T]

Sicknasty ambience

Bass to me though seems a little thin although it has some great grit to it. Drums are great and loud. Just curious you layer drums and stuf right? Once again though teh cymbals/hats need work

MA3HbO responds:

I yes i do layer stuff.Although the kick in this track is just 1 sample.And i agree with about the percussion.Some EQ will do the work i think.As for the bass i might tweak it some more to make it more powerful so to speak :D.Thanks for the support !

sickness!

just my two cents:
to start off, awesome build up lotsa great ambient noises, drums are cool but you need crazier thick hihats imo (try modeling some snares into high hat shuffles). Bassline is cool but needs some moar variation, try layering another bassline in there for ultra sickness (with more gritty qualities to it). ALso try making some crazy transitions with weird drum sequences and other random sounds.

unfortunately my 5'ving gave the score -0.0000040 lol

MA3HbO responds:

Well i started this track about 2 hours ago so there's gonna be alot more going on.
Thanks for your suggestions.I'll def try what you said about the hats.Again thanks for the support.I'll let you know when i upload the finished thing.

PS.I actually wanted your opinion for another track of mine called Neurofunk SH!T but i created this before you saw my review :D.Go check it out if you want.
Its far better imo (and its almost finished).

[AD - EA Online Pass (No Song)]

hmm

I think you need to boost 200hz on the snare

AeraDynamic responds:

its 230hz mister

[-PdG- Origin (FL CORE)]

quality

love the light feel of the melodies, and the mixing is great

Prodigal responds:

why tank you

[Problem,Officer?]

this is nice!

love the rise ups n stuff

eatmeatleet responds:

thanks, all that stuff were made with wasp

[Canon (Dance Remix)]

2 bomber doesnt know what hes talkin about

This just needs a solid beat. Melodies are great though.

The track would sound 20x better if you had some pumpin house drums underneath. Look up sidechaining, and get get better samples first of all, then layer and compress em, and then eq n stuff. I'd say slow the tempo down too a lil.

caleb392 responds:

thx man ill try that stuff, good tips.

[Tonestep! [MAC]]

Sick but ...

did you sample Boom by excision? Even if you did who cares, awesome bass

Koriigahn responds:

Newp, i did not sir
